President O-bankruptcy's approval ratings are dropping so fast, it is the worst showing in presidential history for the first 55 days. He has basically lost everyone except the kool-aid drinking leftards who are unable to reason or think.

President BO is below Bush's approval rating at the same point in the Bush presidency in 2001. Check out this article by former Bill Clinton pollster (Democrat) Doug Schoen. It is scathing. :)

Today numbers are his worst - and let Atlas assure you, it will get worse. The American people still do not know they have a jihad sympathizer in the White House.

It
is simply wrong for commentators to continue to focus on President
Barack Obama's high levels of popularity, and to conclude that these
are indicative of high levels of public confidence in the work of his
administration. Indeed, a detailed look at recent survey data shows
that the opposite is most likely true. The American people are coming
to express increasingly significant doubts about his initiatives, and
most likely support a different agenda and different policies from
those that the Obama administration has advanced.

Polling data show that Mr. Obama's approval rating is dropping and
is below where George W. Bush was in an analogous period in 2001.
Rasmussen Reports data shows that Mr. Obama's net presidential approval
rating -- which is calculated by subtracting the number who strongly
disapprove from the number who strongly approve -- is just six, his
lowest rating to date.

Overall, Rasmussen Reports
shows a 56%-43% approval, with a third strongly disapproving of the
president's performance. This is a substantial degree of polarization
so early in the administration. Mr. Obama has lost virtually all of his
Republican support and a good part of his Independent support, and the
trend is decidedly negative.

A detailed examination of presidential popularity after 50 days on
the job similarly demonstrates a substantial drop in presidential
approval relative to other elected presidents in the 20th and 21st
centuries.The reason for this decline most likely has to do with
doubts about the administration's policies and their impact on peoples'
lives.

There is also a clear sense in the polling that taxes will increase
for all Americans because of the stimulus, notwithstanding what the
president has said about taxes going down for 95% of Americans. Close
to three-quarters expect that government spending will grow under this
administration.

Recent Gallup data echo these concerns. That polling shows that
there are deep-seeded, underlying economic concerns. Eighty-three
percent say they are worried that the steps Mr. Obama is taking to fix
the economy may not work and the economy will get worse. Eighty-two
percent say they are worried about the amount of money being added to
the deficit. Seventy-eight percent are worried about inflation growing,
and 69% say they are worried about the increasing role of the
government in the U.S. economy.

When Gallup asked whether we should be spending more or less in the
economic stimulus, by close to 3-to-1 margin voters said it is better
to have spent less than to have spent more. When asked whether we are
adding too much to the deficit or spending too little to improve the
economy, by close to a 3-to-2 margin voters said that we are adding too
much to the deficit.

Support for the stimulus package is dropping from narrow majority
support to below that. There is no sense that the stimulus package
itself will work quickly, and according to a recent Wall Street
Journal/NBC poll, close to 60% said it would make only a marginal
difference in the next two to four years. Rasmussen data shows that
people now actually oppose Mr. Obama's budget, 46% to 41%.
Three-quarters take this position because it will lead to too much
spending. And by 2-to-1, voters reject House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's
call for a second stimulus package.

While over two-thirds support the plan to help homeowners refinance
their mortgage, a 48%-36% plurality said that it will unfairly benefit
those who have been irresponsible, echoing Rick Santelli's call to arms
on CNBC.

And although a narrow majority remains confident in Mr. Obama's
goals and overall direction, 45% say they do not have confidence, a
number that has been growing since the inauguration less than two
months ago. With three-quarters saying that they expect the economy to
get worse, it is hard to see these numbers improving substantially.

There is no real appetite for increasing taxes to pay for an
expanded health-insurance program. Less than half would support such an
idea, which is 17% less than the percentage that supported government
health insurance when Bill Clinton first considered it in March of 1993.

[...]

Only less than a quarter of Americans believe that the federal
government truly reflects the will of the people. Almost half disagree
with the idea that no one can earn a living or live "an American life"
without protection and empowerment by the government, while only
one-third agree.

Despite the economic stimulus that Congress just passed and the
budget and financial and mortgage bailouts that Congress is now
debating, just 19% of voters believe that Congress has passed any
significant legislation to improve their lives. While Congress's
approval has increased, it still stands at only 18%. Over two-thirds of
voters believe members of Congress are more interested in helping their
own careers than in helping the American people. When it comes to the
nation's economic issues, two-thirds of voters have more confidence in
their own judgment than they do in the average member of Congress.

The Democrat congress.

PRESIDENT HUSSEIN'S APPROVAL RATINGS DROPPING LIKE A STONE
